அன்பே அன்பே
நீ என் பிள்ளை தேகம்
மட்டும் காதல் இல்லை
பூமியில் நாம் வாழும்
காலம் தோறும் உண்மையில்
உன் ஜீவன் என்னைச் சேரும்
பூமியில் நாம் வாழும் காலம்
தோறும் உண்மையில் உன்
ஜீவன் என்னைச் சேரும்
My beloved, my beloved, you are my child
Love is not just physical attraction
As long as we live on this earth
In truth, your soul will join mine
As long as we live on this earth
In truth, your soul will join mine
அன்பே அன்பே
நீ என் பிள்ளை தேகம்
மட்டும் காதல் இல்லை
My beloved, my beloved, you are my child
Love is not just physical attraction
கண்ணா என்
கூந்தலில் சூடும் பொன்
பூக்களும் உன்னை
உன்னை அழைக்க
ஆண் : கண்ணே உன்
கைவளை மீட்டும்
சங்கீதங்கள் என்னை
என்னை உரைக்க
My dear, the golden flowers adorning my hair
Call out to you and you alone
Male: My dear, the music created by your bangles
Enchants and mesmerizes me
கண்களைத்
திறந்து கொண்டு நான்
கனவுகள் காணுகிறேன்
ஆண் : கண்களை
மூடிக்கொண்டு நான்
காட்சிகள் தேடுகிறேன்
Keeping my eyes open
I am dreaming
Male: Closing my eyes
I am searching for visions
உன் பொன்
விரல் தொடுகையிலே
நான் பூவாய் மாறுகிறேன்
பூமியில் நாம்
வாழும் காலம் தோறும்
உண்மையில் என் ஜீவன்
உன்னைச் சேரும்
When your golden finger touches me
I turn into a flower
Male: As long as we live on this earth
In truth, my soul will join yours
அன்பே அன்பே
நீ என் பிள்ளை தேகம்
மட்டும் காதல் இல்லை
My beloved, my beloved, you are my child
Love is not just physical attraction
...........................
யாரும்
சொல்லாமலும்
ஓசை இல்லாமலும்
தீயும் பஞ்சும் நெருங்க
யாரைப் பெண்
என்பது யாரை ஆண்
என்பது ஒன்றில்
ஒன்று அடங்க
Without anyone telling, without making a sound
Like fire and cotton drawing close
Female: Who is a woman and who is a man
When both dissolve into each other
உச்சியில்
தேன் விழுந்து என்
உயிருக்குள் இனிக்குதடி
மண்ணகம் மறந்து
விட்டேன் என்னை
மாற்றுங்கள் பழையபடி
As honey drips on the top of my head
It sweetens deep within my soul
Female: I have forgotten the earthly world
Change me back as I was before
உன் வாசத்தை
சுவாசிக்கிறேன் என்
ஆயுள் நீளும்படி
பூமியில் நாம்
வாழும் காலம் தோறும்
உண்மையில் உன் ஜீவன்
என்னைச் சேரும்
I breathe in your scent
So that my life span extends
Female: As long as we live on this earth
In truth, your soul will join mine
பூமியில் நாம்
வாழும் காலம் தோறும்
உண்மையில் உன் ஜீவன்
என்னைச் சேரும்
As long as we live on this earth
In truth, your soul will join mine
